Ugandan Patient Experience Laser Disectomy Surgery in India
I am Juliana from Uganda I came for my laser Disectomy Surgery in India with the best laser Disectomy surgeon associated to Tour2india4health. For several years before Laser Disectomy Surgery in India I had recurring lower back pain. At that time I was a regular runner. With time this became more severe and constant, so that I had to stop running.
Suddenly, one morning I woke up with excruciating pain and I noticed pain in my left leg all the way down to my toes, which were also becoming numb and partially paralyzed.
I decided to see my family doctor at once who requested MRI’s and examined me. He told me I would most likely need surgery. With MRI’s in hand I decided to get a second opinion with a neurologist for an expert diagnosis. The neurologist’s diagnosis confirmed that I had a severely ruptured L4/5 disc, which would urgently require surgery as the S1 and sciatic nerves were greatly impaired and could suffer permanent damage if not operated. I was referred to Tour2india4health in India to arrange this neurosurgery in India either by standard or less invasive endoscopic procedure.
Tour2india4health responded extremely rapidly. Their associated surgeons examined my back together with the MRI’s, CT Scans and X-rays and concluded that there was too much loose material from the ruptured disc in order to perform an endoscopic procedure. The procedure went very smoothly and the treatment at the surgery center was top-notch. After a 21/2 hour operation and within 24 hours I was recuperating. He also referred me to one of the best physiotherapist in Mumbai India.
Today a month after the surgery I feel no pain and stiffness is gradually going away. I would say that I am at 90+%of the flexibility I had before the entire thing started. I have replaced running with Nordic Walking and fast walking which will continue regularly along with my stretching/exercise regimen’ probably forever to continue maintaining strong back muscles. I learned that if I slough off, the nerves and back pain can flair up.
I would go back to Dr. Dheeraj Bojwani, if I had to do it all over again. I am grateful for his professional skills and gentleness incl. his well trained team; to the doctors, nurses and staff of the Tour2india4health, and to the physical therapist, They all helped me regain a pain free life.The medical treatment I received was first class indeed.
Thank you,
Juliana
